Tasting note
This wine begins with aromas of honeyed citrus fruits, leading to intense flavours of lime and grapefruit. There is a good backbone of minerals and bright acidity. Recently, I had a 2006 Quails' Gate Dry Riesling; the age had rounded the acidity and increased the intensity of the aromas and fruit. I would recommend putting the 2010 away for a few years as well. Score - 91. (John Schreiner, johnschreiner.blogspot.com, May 4, 2011)
This Riesling is not too dry with nice apple and floral hints, well balanced to a fruity richness and lively acidity. This style of Riesling can sipped on its own or paired with sushi, grilled pork chops or curry dishes.
